  • Publication number: 20150125646
    Abstract: Thermally conductive polymer materials having thermally conductive charges and polymer network compositions characterized by the fact that the network is able to reorganize by exchange reactions that allow it to relax stresses and/or flow while maintaining network connectivity. As a result, the polymer network is characterized by its finite viscosity at elevated temperatures in spite of the crosslinking. These characteristics provide such materials remarkable properties for use as thermal interface and notably improved adhesion, self-repairing, in addition to greater processing flexibility, better mechanical properties, improved chemical resistance.

  • Publication number: 20130334417
    Abstract: The smoke detector includes: a chamber (1) provided with apertures (3) allowing the smoke to enter a detection area (D), a light source (S) configured to emit towards the detection area (D), and a light receiver (R) configured so as to receive the light coming from the detection area (D). A concentration element (6, 7) is provided so as to create a non-uniform electric field in the detection area (D), that, in the presence of smoke, can polarize smoke particles entering the detection area (D). The non-uniform electric field has a spatial gradient configured to exert a dielectrophoretic force on the smoke particles so as to drive the polarized smoke particles into a concentration zone (C) in the detection area (D) and to aggregate them together to form quasi “big particles”.
